The woman repeatedly refused to let the man inside and ultimately called her son, who was a few blocks away, for help, according to KPRC 2 News.
The son reportedly told police he arrived to his mother’s house to find that the man had broken the door. He shot the man as he was attempting to enter the home, according to KPRC.
